Nadal not far from retiring against Fritz

Injured in the abdominals, the Spaniard seemed suffering a lot and ended up calling the physio.

Men's tennis is so predictable, if I didn't know any better I'd swear it was fixed. So boring I don't even watch the so called big two. To me the dominance of the big three has ruined men's tennis for me. Nothing worse than watching the same people play in the finals. I'll be glad when they retire.

CRYBABIES: NO TALENT?? What joke you are. Maybe you have not been listening to the commentators and other tennis players including Kyrgios as to the unbelievable TALENT of Nadal. A right handed person who plays left. As for steroids-get your proof of SHUT-A-THE-MOUTH. That argument is so old and untrue. And if the others want to win then they better change whatever they need to

What do you say. I hope Rafa is healthy. Will be the most respectful player in tennis playing the most disrespectful player in tennis.

The same story over, and over... If Nadal loses, it will be because he is injured... I never liked his high balls "wall style", and I am really surprised he has been that long in the circuit. In terms of will to win, mental power, yeah he is unbeatable. In terms of talent, sorry Nadal's fans, even K has more talent, unfortunately he doesn't take tennis that serious, not like a pro should be. Hummmm an injured Nadal on clay, I'd still bet on Nadal, but, on grass, against K, forget it. The ATP or whoever "controls" the show can give Nadal any amount of steroids/cortisone for his pain, he won't beat K on grass. Well, he must be super happy, after all, the AO handed him a slam this year, and now he holds the record!

Crying Dixie??? 🤣 😂 Look at my pic... I just spoke the truth... I don't have anything personal against Nadal, I don't know him. Through interviews, he seems to be a humble and a good person. As a tennis player, I don't like his style. Too much emphasis on physical, defense and high balls, has it been effective? Heck yeah! The guy has won 22 Slams so far. But, he has been influencing tennis "to a wrong direction" in my opinion... Talent is not "required" anymore, just die at the gym, learn some shots, you will be fine to compete... For the sake of tennis, I hope someone take the slam record from him.

Just think if Rafa has no talent—-you player got beat by a no talented player..pretty stupid

Steve, I see you are not a tennis player, even in the amateur level. You also can't interpret a text... So that's not my problem!

I didn't say Nadal doesn't have talent, I said compared to other players he is not the most talent one... Even uncle Tony has given several interviews mentioning that, pointing out to Federer been the most talent one, and I agree with him. So Nadal had to work really hard in order to overcome that. And that
was what I meant. Regarding steroids/cortisone, I didn't accuse him of anything your dumb! I can't proof anything. It's not my fault that you do not understand how the ATP deals with medical issues. In certain cases, Nadal has been authorized to get shots for pain, "a quick fix" to allow him to compete for another match... This quick fix can be 'steroids/cortisone ', Mc has made comments about it. Is it clear now??? Or should I draw for you???

And yes, at least 5 current players are more talented than Nadal, now, does talent alone makes you win? Of course not.
